Brand New Relationship
I like to compare
A brand new relationship
To a brand new car
When a car is new
You wash and wax it
Very careful how you drive it
You don’t want to eat in it
Don’t want nobody parking near it
All because you don’t want
Anything to ruin the newness
As time goes by you
Become comfortable
To eat in it
And you don’t wash or wax it as much
Slack up doing the things
That you use to
Don’t take it in to check
To see if it needs repair
Unless you see or hear
A sign of trouble
Otherwise you only
Take it in once a year
For an inspection
Everything is wonderful
In the beginning when
The car was brand new
It was given lots of attention
Well a relationship/ marriage
Can be looked at the same way
Everything was great
In the beginning when
Things were new
That’s all good but what
Happens when scratches
Bumps and dents happen
Do you trade it in
To get a new one
No that’s not what you do
Have the mindset
That if you take care of it
It will take care of you
A Trade in
Could never become a classic
Have the 30 day tags
Turn into classic
I don’t know about you
But I want something that’s true
That holds value
Any relationship can make it
When it’s all brand new
What happens when trouble
Comes along
Do you stay or run along
Remember it’s not
About the easy stuff
It’s about the hard
So what will you do
Will you make the necessary
Repair to your relationship
When it needs it
Or treat it like an old car
And trade it in
I’m just sayin
We Deserve To Be Lifted Up
First off everyone knows that I enjoy inspiring and encouraging still we have to discuss what’s going on in the black community. The way black women are treated it’s a disgrace and there really isn’t any excuses for it. Too many people are pointing fingers and no one is taking ownership for what’s happening. Or coming up with solutions for the hate that’s going on. Black women are constantly being put down especially in music. I pray that God steps in and show us how to go about breaking this chain of hate. It’s heartbreaking. There are good black men saying positive things about black women but their voices are being drowned out. I just feel that the hateful black men are hurt little boys. Yes I said it. It needs to stop.

I am a music lover. Teena Marie broke down racial barriers with her voice. She is simply amazing. I love all of her music and had a hard time choosing which song that I was going to share. Check it out:
What Do You Enjoy?
Remember the saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Not sure if it’s true or not. I do know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. What do you enjoy doing and when was the last time that you did it? If you don’t have anything in mind try finding a hobby. Do something exciting you deserve it. So be like Nike and just do it! Make life more memorable it’s so worth it.
Communication
Most problems between people would be saved if only they would communicate. If something is bothering you say it don’t throw hints talk clear the air. It isn’t fair to the person that you have a problem with. You have a mouth use it. Look at it like this when a baby is hungry, sick, upset etc what does it do? It cries so a parent know it needs something. A baby should not communicate better than an adult it’s time to grow up. Great friendships and relationships have been broken up all behind people not communicating and having an ego which aren’t a good combo.
There’s no need to write a thousand words about something that’s so simple. Don’t lose a treasured relationship because you refuse to open your mouth.
The problem could be simple to fix but you will never know if you don’t talk. If you value your friendship or relationship save it. Talk.
Privacy
No I’m not tripping
Yes I truly believe
Whether you are in
A relationship or married
Everyone is entitled to a
Certain level of privacy
It’s important to have trust
In the one that you love
A phone doesn’t need to be locked
But at the same time
A phone shouldn’t be
Checked through Facebook,
Texts or voicemail
If your love one phones rings
How about don’t answer it
How about forget it
Unless they ask you to get it
That’s trust
Just like staying off of
Their Facebook page
You can’t get accurate information
From that anyway
Doing all this will drive you crazy
Don’t nobody feel like
Having to explain their every move
Always questioning
Oh and another thing
Go out together
As well as enjoy time alone
Everyone deserves an outlet
So don’t blow up their phone
Allow your partner to
Enjoy their space
If you have to play detective
Then you need to reevaluate
The relationship there maybe
Something or there may not be
If you are one with an issue
With trust then chances are
It’s you

Vanessa Mae all that I can say is “Wow”. I have been a huge fan of her for a very long time. Her style is off the charts. Check it out:
And Sometimes
On my journey with God
I have learned
That sometimes God
Helps right away
And sometimes He won’t
Sometimes He will take away pain
And sometimes He will allow
One to go through
Not to hurt you
But to strengthen you
So that the next time
A challenge happens
You will pass the test
Without stress
You will know what to do
Sometimes God want us
To be an inspiration
To somebody
What an honor
Let’s face it
No one wants to listen
To a person who has no idea
Kinda like applying for a job
With no experience
Experience is the best teacher
One can try to relate
But even that can be done
Only but so much
God has a season
For everything with a reason
Though we may not ever realize
Why things are happening at the time
One thing is for certain
God will end the hurting
I have learned this
Yes I have gained experience
Sometimes God helps us out right away
And sometimes He waits
No matter our fate
Or how long it takes
His timing is great
He makes no mistakes
He is with us all the time
For always
Because He is that kind of God
He is simply wonderful
Be Lifted
